Finally, a ‘Black Panther’ meme that perfectly sums up this weird ‘spring’ weather
The sign of a good movie is usually high box office numbers, sure, but in my humble opinion it should be the number of memes it provides.
Black Panther checks off both those boxes, and the latest meme to come from the Marvel hit perfectly encapsulate…

The most buzzed-about moment at this year’s Oscars wasn’t a Jimmy Kimmel bit or a presenter flub. It was Frances McDormand’s acceptance speech.
With two words – “inclusion rider” – McDormand called on her colleagues to take action against the industry’s lack of diversity. The question was no longer what Hollywood’s top talents could do, but what they would do.

The inclusion rider is contract language that a filmmaker or star can use in negotiations to demand that a project meet a certain standard of diversity. In the days since McDormand’s speech, a growing number of top-tier talents have publicly pledged to adopt inclusion riders going forward. Read more…

The effects of Frances McDormand’s epic Oscars speech are already taking hold.
On Sunday, after winning the Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role, McDormand finished her speech with a phrase many people hadn’t heard of before: “inclusion rider”.
In a nutshell, an “inclusion rider” is a contractual clause that requires a certain level of diversity to be met in a film.

Michael B. Jordan may be a no-holds-barred badass in the world of Wakanda, but IRL he’s actually just a nice guy.
He’s happy to honour a lost bet, he’s a big fan of anime, and he shares a home with his parents.
On Thursday, a tweet describing some of these lesser-known Jordan facts went viral.

Lupita Nyong’o is still making Michael B. Jordan do pushups, and it’s still hilarious

Never lose a bet to Lupita Nyong’o. Just don’t do it.
Over the past week, Nyong’o has been getting maximum value out of a bet Michael B. Jordan apparently lost to her on the set of Black Panther — a bet which means he now has to do push-ups (up to a certain number, at least) whenever Nyong’o asks him to.
Well, the bad news is she’s almost out of pushups. But the good news is she’s really making the most of the ones she has left:

Why you should watch ‘Fruitvale Station’ before seeing ‘Black Panther’

Excited for Black Panther? So are we. Which is why we’re rolling out obsessive coverage with Black Panther Week.
Long before super-team duo Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler teamed up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, they did so in Oakland.
The two first joined forces in an indie film turned critical darling called Fruitvale Station, which documented the life of 22-year old Oscar Grant before he was shot and killed by BART police on New Year’s Day in 2009. It was a deeply personal, gut-wrenching look at Grant’s death, and it gave a face to a polarizing debate about race and authority in America — humanizing one the biggest national discussions of its time.
